Naga-Waukee Park and Golf Course are located just north of I-94 spanning the lands between the shores of Nagawicka Lake and Pewaukee Lake.
This 414-acre parcel consists of a regional park, a championship 18-hole golf course, and two lake access sites. The diverse topographical features were created during the glacial age, which enhances the beauty of the site. Naga-Waukee Park spans 206 acres and offers a spectacular view of Nagawicka Lake as you meander down the boardwalk to the lake access or beach.
Another boardwalk awaits you as it winds through the trees along the lakefront. It is a splendid view and a great photo opportunity. The oak hickory forest and thick undergrowth define the trails that wind throughout the park, which is home to many different species of wildlife. Many Baltimore Orioles make Naga-Waukee their home, as well as Great Horned Owls.

It was a wonderful day in the park with great picnic spots on a well cared for park. Remember to bring water shoes sine the beach is rocky. The only disappointment was the closure of their concession stand.😔
Huge park with a $5 entrance fee! They are in correspondance to the Waukesha County Park System, so it includes a lodge, legacy forest trail, and more. There is a public boat launch on the Southeast end of Lake Nagawaukee, but it's not incredible large or anything. Be wary of the times you visit! Also, there are campsites, but I'm not sure what the fees are. They are modest sites that I believe supply electric/water, and most seem like they have some sort of inground/steel framed campfire. There is plenty of wildlife as well! White-tailed deer, small and large birds, and of course small mammals such as squirrels and chipmunks. There are multiple trails inside of the park as well that wind through the forest and around the campsites. I'd suggest trying out the camping here, it seems like a beautiful place to visit come Summertime!
OK beach. Positives: nice breeze comes across the lake, playground right there, clean convenient bathrooms with showers, laid back atmosphere. Negatives: parking is not close so drop off your stuff 1st, rocky entering the water, grilling and alcohol technically not allowed.
First time renting a pavilion here. Experience was great, easy to book online, and submit license plate numbers after for park entry. Park staff on the day of the event were very helpful!
We live down the road so we stop here often. It gets busy during the summer so we tend to stop during hours when there are not many people since the beach area is very small. We love to hike the trails and enjoy the peace and quiet. The best time to be here is during the winter. It is beautiful and again, peaceful.
The park is always clean and looks amazing.
